Relationship status on facebook?

Just curious as to which signs do and which don't or if there is a correlation....do you post your relationship status on facebook or prefer to keep it off the public airwaves?

Whats facebook? I really dont get the concept of facebook. The way i see it is, if u r important in my life chances are we wont lose contact and you will know other ways of getting in contact with me, ie. cell number and address, etc. And if u dont then that means you arent important. I once opened a fb account bcoz of my cousin and tbh all the requests were from ppl i didnt wanna speak to or see again so i deleted. Facebook to me is like a haunted house, everybody there is from the past.

I always used to think that was lame and NOYB. I find it a awkward when people go to single to in a relationship to single. Repeat. LOL
But when I got married I changed it to married and even posted wedding pics. I guess I thought it is really serious and lasting so it was ok. 🙂

I don't want that shit on internet. It's just a chance for people to brown nose! Both my ex scorpios constantly wanted me to say " your in a relationship with " and every time I said no they would freak out and get butt hurt.

I think Facebook is ridiculous and now I no longer have one.

After Libra and I became exclusive AND started living together, I sent the request to have the status put up. He thought he was being funny by ignoring it for a few days, waiting for me to say something about it. Then he (over)acted all put out and exasperated about "women and their need to make this shit public".. Oh reaaaally? Duly noted and filed away in my little Pisces mind vault of seemingly unimportant details.

When we broke up a year later, I'm the one that stripped the status out and quietly deleted it from the news feed.. I'm not one for public drama, period. When we (officially) got back together a few months later.. nothing. I sent no request. To this very day, I'm STILL listed as "Single" -- HE will send the request himself, without prompting from me, or I'll stay Single forever.

There was that "Crazy texting from a one night stand chick" that was going around awhile back, the whole http://www.buzzfeed.com/hgrant/this-is-what-crazy-looks-like-via-text-messaging>JJ and Kevin saga. He was sent a link for it, looked at it and listened to it (it was narrated aloud by some comedian guy), and turned to me at the Facebook part and said, "Hey, baby.. I'm surprised YOU haven't mentioned our Facebook status.. why is that?" I shrugged aand said, "Not important to me what the FB world thinks. Our friends and family know we've been together for years. And isn't flirting is easier with your status as single? You would know." End of subject.. but a couple weeks later, I saw that his "Single" status was no longer displayed publicly. It was hidden, NO status. Whatever.

A couple weeks ago he saw one of those joke photos a mutual friend posted.. something about "We've been dating a week, why is your FB status still Single, huh? huh?".. and he again said, "You still haven't said anything about OUR status. You trying to hide it? You ashamed of me?" I shot back, "Well, everyone knows it's been almost four years, not like it's a secret. Everyone who needs to know.. already knows."

Yes, we were both laughing and joke-y.. but there was a glimmer of truth (and insecurity) in there too.. he's wondering WHY I don't care about the status, and why I'm still publicly Single. Cuz then he said, "But you're still listed as Single." And I shrugged (AGAIN!) and said, "And until YOU decide you want to request that to be changed, it'll STAY that way. Cuz I don't really care either way what it says we are on Facebook."

And I really don't.

Side note: Every so often, he'll post a random "I really love you baby" or "Can't wait to get home and hold you in my arms" something or other on my Wall. I'm not on FB much and rarely update anything, so his post stays right there and visible for a long, long time. Which is probably his whole intention right there. LOL cute.

When I first started seeing scorpio a yr and a half ago, I was accustomed to "will you be my GF" "yes I will" kindof talks, which included "in a relationship" type of social media labels. Well, I got neither.

When I finally questioned If we were exclusive (9 months deep) he practically mocked me not knowing that we were. Something along the lines of "so because we're not labeled that way on FB, we aren't in a relationship?" - granted I hadn't gotten the talk either, but this was it, we were together. I changed my status, his stayed single. It wasn't a huge deal but made me feel like he wasn't proud to be with me because he didn't let the public know. (Keep in mind, it is simply what I was accustomed too and also littered with my own insecurities as anyone in his life that was close to him, knew we were together.)

At some point this summer we had some issues and he broke it off with me though he didn't want to. It was my fault. We were both heartbroken and spent the next weeks hashing out everything and anything. Emotions that were never prevalent before, came into the picture. I fell harder for him. During this, I mentioned that it was kindof a dick move to keep his label as "single" all that time and that it had added to my insecurities in our relationship when we were previously official.

He had broken up with me, confirmed his breakup with me a week later after our hashing, and then what did he do after I mentioned the above ^^, he hid his "single" status.

And though I don't really take all of this that seriously, it is interesting to analyze. Why would he change it AFTER the breakup?

I asked a scorp friend what he thought about this and he said it meant in that moment he decided I was his.

Well, we're back together now, or so I think? Hahaha. There have been no talks but I have learned that with scorpios, actions are louder than words truly. It took a while for me to get this, but I do now.
